It’s Monday! What are you reading?
This week I’m reading “Redemption Ridge” by Lottie Brent Boggan.
This story takes place in post-Civil-War Mississippi. Well, that’s right up my alley!!
I was so excited to read this story and am about 20% through it on my Kindle, but the formatting is so bad, I’m struggling. There are no indented paragraphs and no spaces between the block paragraphs, so when it gets into heavy dialog, it all runs together, and it’s difficult to figure out who is saying what without re-reading three times.
Honestly, I think the characters and the story are good so far, but I don’t think I’ll finish it. I just don’t have enough energy to sort out who said what. It’s a shame. Maybe the paperback is formatted better.
If you’re a fan of Southern history, this book is for you. Perhaps you will have more patience than I.
